Why was Ruminawi not eligible to the throne?
Upvote:4
I would suggest that he was not chosen, not due to his status, but due to the politics favoring Atahualpa. The link you provided on the princess/consort Paccha Duchicela states:
Her rights to the throne of Quito was thereby transferred to the royal Inca dynasty
By selecting Atahualpa as heir, the Quito territory was added to the empire much like any political marriage of Monarchs in Europe. So politics, not birthright.
